I am still an young one but from what I know that is not a 240 Volt receptacle
It is a tandem/Parallel Outlet the older plugs were a tandem blade design and modern plugs are a polarized parallel design (That outlet not being polarized)

The newer design of that outlet is polarized and both slots look like a 20A T slot receptacle


Thanks for the reply but did you note the slot offset is not like what was or is commonly seen.
